Description

A kind of method of efficiency refining high super-purity ferrite stainless steel
Technical field
The invention belongs to the stainless steel smelting field, relate to the method for utilizing VOD stove (vacuum-oxygen decarbonizing stove) refining super-purity ferrite stainless steel.
Background technology
Studies show that, the reduction of ferritic stainless steel intermediate gap Elements C, N content helps to improve the ferritic stainless steel performance, these performances comprise: the ductility of brittleness at room temperature, solidity to corrosion and weld is called super-purity ferrite stainless steel with the C+N total content less than the ferritic stainless steel of 150ppm usually.In the industrial production, usually walk three-step approach and produce such steel grade, three-step approach is: EAF (electric arc furnace)+AOD (the multiple blown converter of argon oxygen)+VOD (vacuum-oxygen decarbonizing stove), the refining of VOD stove is control end point carbon, the most key operation of nitrogen content.
The VOD routine operation is as follows: the molten steel of, handling through AOD enters VOD with the ladle transportation and processes station, measures temperature and composition, enters vacuum processing chamber after qualified, and stir at first forvacuum and the end; Two, the beginning oxygen decarburization is processed under the vacuum condition, and top blowing oxygen decarburization under the end agitation condition judges whether to stop oxygen blast according to composition of fumes, CO+CO in furnace gas 2When content is lower than certain value, stop oxygen blast; Three, free carbonization treatment under the ultravacuum condition adopts greatly and stirs; Four, reduction process adds the alloying that ferrosilicon, aluminium, lime and fluorite carry out deoxidation and silicon; Five, vacuum breaker; Six, feed silk and soft stirring under the atmospheric condition, send at last casting.
Routine operation for carbon nitrogen content in the steel is dropped to utmost point low value, is taked large blowing oxygen quantity operation usually when smelting super-purity ferrite stainless steel, wish to take off carbon content very low by many oxygen blast, and 110t VOD stove blowing oxygen quantity is at 800-1400Nm 3Between, the disadvantageous effect that high blowing oxygen quantity brings is that oxygen utilization rate (be used for the oxygen of decarburization and the ratio of total blowing oxygen quantity) reduces, high blowing oxygen quantity can cause the molten bath overheated serious simultaneously, the molten bath top temperature is all more than 1720 ℃ when stopping oxygen, high blowing oxygen quantity directly causes vacuum processing time elongated, and in addition, high blowing oxygen quantity also can cause reductor (being also referred to as reductive agent) add-on to increase, corresponding smelting cost increases, and also is unfavorable for the control of inclusion.
The free carbon rejection process decarbonization rate of routine operation is on the low side, no doubt there is carbon content in the steel to be in the reason that lower level causes the decarburization difficulty to increase, yet analyze from Thermodynamics of Decarbonization, affected by ferrostatic pressure, free decarburization can only occur in the upper strata in molten steel molten bath and exposed molten steel surface, analyze from decarburization kinetics, it is very large that molten steel molten bath inner carbon oxygen spontaneous reaction forms decarburization bubble difficulty, the reaction area that provides for decarburization mainly concentrates on the molten steel exposed surface and BOTTOM ARGON BLOWING rises to the air pocket that inner upper strata, molten steel molten bath forms, at identical conversion zone, the reaction area that the reaction area that air pocket provides will provide much smaller than the disperse small bubbles is so the reaction area of free carbon rejection process has been subject to great restriction.
According to above analysis as can be known, the routine operation blowing oxygen quantity is large, and oxygen blow duration is partially long, and the decarburization nitric efficiency of free carbon rejection process is on the low side, causes vacuum processing time long, and blowing oxygen quantity is large, and reductive agent consumption is large.For these problems, following patent has proposed corresponding novel method.
Japanese patent application publication No. JP8209226 (A) has proposed a kind of spray gun of using to oxygenants such as molten steel surface winding-up iron ore, manganese ores in the vacuum refinement process, can promote denitrification reaction at high-carbon regions, strengthen the method for decarburizing reaction in the low-carbon (LC) district, this method is also referred to as the VOD-PB method, this method advantage is that nitric efficiency is very high, yet the equipment that this method requires is complicated, and ore fines injection may cause the molten steel phosphorization and increase sulphur simultaneously.
Thereby Japanese patent application publication No. JP11106823 improves decarburization and the nitric efficiency of VOD treating processes to the method for the large stirring of molten steel by increasing Bottom Blowing Gas Flow Rate, the inventive method is widely used in the whole world, yet, excessive end stirring intensity can cause large splash, and so-called strong mixing method is subject to severely restricts in fact.
Korean Patent Publication No. KR20030003846 has proposed that winding-up lime improves decarbonization rate and prevents that lime is to molten steel carburetting in the free carbon rejection process of high vacuum after stopping oxygen, yet the lime of pre-spirt is difficult to fusing, can form hard solid slag, affect on the contrary flowing of molten bath.
China Patent Publication No. CN101058837A has proposed the method that VOD smelts super-purity ferrite stainless steel, is actually conventional VOD operation steps, and this patent is too short at molten steel deep deoxidation finishing time, and this is disadvantageous to liquid steel desulphurization.
By the oxygen balance of VOD smelting process is analyzed as can be known, the oxygen of ordinary method winding-up only 30%-40% is used for decarburization, and residue oxygen major part (mainly is Cr with dissolved oxygen and oxide compound 2O 3) mode stay in the molten steel molten bath, the oxygen amount in the molten bath is enough taken off utmost point low value with molten steel carbon, if can improve the decarburization nitric efficiency of free carbon rejection process, then can reduce the time of oxygen decarburization and reduce blowing oxygen quantity, has shortened vacuum processing time.Patent of the present invention has been developed the method for new high efficiency production super clean ferritic stainless steel based on this.
Summary of the invention
Purpose of the present invention provides a kind of method of efficiency refining high super-purity ferrite stainless steel, can improve the decarburization nitric efficiency of VOD smelting process, shortens vacuum processing time to enhance productivity, and reduces oxygen consumption and reductive agent consumption.
For achieving the above object, technical scheme of the present invention is:
VOD stove (vacuum-oxygen decarbonizing stove) is smelted the stainless oxygen decarburization stage of ferrite and is adopted few oxygen blast operation, adopt the compound Argon in the end, top to strengthen the decarburization denitrogenation in the free decarburization stage, by as above technological improvement, can improve the decarburization nitric efficiency of VOD smelting process, shorten vacuum processing time to enhance productivity, reduce oxygen consumption and reductive agent consumption, and further reduce the end point carbon nitrogen content.
Particularly, the method for efficiency refining high super-purity ferrite stainless steel, its step is as follows:
1) ladle enters vacuum-oxygen decarbonizing stove VOD, and the vacuum tank internal pressure satisfies less than 100Pa, and the initial chromium content of molten steel mass percent is between 10%~25%, and the carbon content mass percent is between 0.25%~0.60%, and the molten steel initial temperature is higher than 1620 ℃;
2) vacuumize also top blowing oxygen decarburization, the while bottom is blown into argon gas molten steel is stirred, and top blowing oxygen flow 270L/ (mint)~310L/ (mint) takes few oxygen blast operation, total blowing oxygen quantity (Nm when the initial carbon mass content is 0.25% 3) be controlled to be 6.3-6.8Nm 3/ t, the initial carbon mass content exceeds 0.1% than 0.25%, and then total blowing oxygen quantity need increase 1.6-1.8Nm 3/ t;
3) the free carbonization treatment of ultravacuum, vacuum pressure requires less than 1000Pa, the compound Argon in the end, top, the rifle head of top rifle is apart from the molten steel identity distance from (rifle position) 1.4-1.6m during Argon, flow is at 200L/ (mint)~260L/ (mint), the BOTTOM ARGON BLOWING total flux is at 2L/ (mint)-6L/ (mint), treatment time 8-12min;
4) add ferrosilicon (siliceous amount content is 70~80%) 2.8-10kg/t, aluminium block 1.0-6.0kg/t and carry out deoxidation, and add lime 10-30kg/t and fluorite 2-8kg/t slag making, simultaneously desulfurization, treatment time 15~20min;
5) vacuum breaker, silk (titanium silk or calcium silk or niobium alloy) is fed in soft stirring, Alloying Treatment or inclusion conditioning, softer stirring, ladle enters the continuous casting station and casts; It does not repeat them here for existing routine techniques.
Preferably, in step 3) during beginning, add aluminium block 0-2kg/t and be used for the rising molten steel temperature, add in the aluminium process argon bottom-blowing total flux between 2L/ (mint)-4L/ (mint).
Further, in whole smelting process, ferrosilicon (siliceous amount content is at the 70-80%) add-on that participates in oxidation is higher than 2.8kg/t, and total ferrosilicon add-on comprises the ferrosilicon amount that participates in oxidation and the ferrosilicon amount that is used for the molten steel alloying, and total fine aluminium add-on is higher than 2.3kg/t.
The inventive method can shorten vacuum processing time, reduces oxygen depletion and reductive agent consumption, and end point carbon adds that the nitrogen total content is stable to be controlled at below the 150ppm simultaneously.
The relative ordinary method of the inventive method adopts few oxygen blast operation, reduces oxygen consumption and reductive agent consumption, and shortens vacuum processing time.
The inventive method step 2) smelt thermally equilibrated angle from VOD and control total blowing oxygen quantity, and difference is controlled total blowing oxygen quantity with conventional from consideration decarburization angle.Reason is, institute's oxygen blast only has 30-40% to be used for decarburization, and other oxygen also major part are stayed in the molten bath, and anoxic source not in fact for decarburization if the speed of free decarburization (not oxygen blast) is raised under the high vacuum, then need not to be blown into a large amount of oxygen and guarantees decarburization.The below will set forth from the energy balance angle and consider total blowing oxygen quantity, meet the requirements to satisfy the needed comparatively high temps of VOD decarburization and terminal temperature.
The top blowing oxygen of VOD is except direct reinforcement decarburization, another very important effect is to provide chemical energy to the molten bath, with the whole vacuum treated thermosteresis of compensation VOD, can be furnished with the electric arc heating plant because the VOD stove can't resemble the common ladle refining furnace, then the energy that discharges of the chemical energy that produces of oxygen blast and alloying with silicon has become only energy supply.Through heat calculation, smelting process for the VOD stove, in the situation about vacuum processing time 65min, the thermosteresis that thermal radiation and ladle heat absorption form is about can reduce about 140 ℃ of molten steel temperatures, in order to remedy this part power loss, guarantee that the VOD terminal temperature meets the requirements, except requiring molten steel initial temperature height, the energy that relies on exactly chemical energy that oxygen blast brings and alloying with silicon to discharge remedies the energy of this loss.
Take the molten steel molten bath of whole VOD smelting process as research object, because oxidized chromium finally goes out by silicon or aluminium reducing, then the energy income mainly from oxygen blown decarburizing reaction comprise the energy that the reaction of the reaction of energy, oxygen and silicon that secondary combustion is emitted and oxygen and aluminium is emitted.As calculated, sloughing energy that 0.1% carbon emits in the steel under the condition of post-combustion rate 60% can make molten steel temperature raise to be about 12 ℃; The energy that the pasc reaction of 75% in the 1kg ferrosilicon that oxygen and ton steel add discharges can make molten steel temperature raise 24 ℃, but because the SiO of generation 2Entering needs in the slag to fix and the fluorite slag with CaO in the lime, basicity of slag (CaO and SiO in the slag 2Mass ratio) be controlled under 2.5 conditions, the fluorite add-on is under lime adding amount 1/4 condition, the lime that for this reason adds and fluorite can reduce about 11 ℃ of respective steel liquid temps in the heat absorption of intensification and melting process, in general, the energy that produces of the 1kg ferrosilicon reaction that adds of oxygen and ton steel deduct corresponding lime and fluorite heat up the fusing energy requirement can be so that molten steel temperature raises about 13 ℃; The energy that the 1kg aluminium that adds of ton steel and oxygen reaction discharge can be so that 32 ℃ of molten steel temperature risings; Silicon is strong heat release element, and ton steel 1kg ferrosilicon (siliceous 75%) also can make molten steel temperature raise 4.1 ℃ in alloying process.Calculate from oxygen consumption aspect, the amount of oxygen that silicon oxidation needs in the 1kg ferrosilicon (siliceous 75%) is 0.60Nm 3, the amount of oxygen that 1kg aluminium needs is 0.62Nm 3, the ton steel is sloughed 0.1% carbon, and to need approximately clean amount of oxygen be 1.4Nm 3
According to above-mentioned analysis, when the molten steel initial temperature is higher than 1620 ℃, energy such as chemical energy and alloying with silicon release can remedy the energy that the molten steel temperature loss adds 20 ℃ of correspondences that embody into insurance, then terminal temperature meets the requirements substantially, according to such thinking the inventive method blowing oxygen quantity is designed.In order to guarantee that energy supply reduces blowing oxygen quantity simultaneously, should add aluminium deoxidation and add less silicon, reason is that the calorific value of aluminium is high, and need to adding lime, the oxide compound that forms behind the silicon oxidation controls basicity, considering needs to guarantee certain quantity of slag so that better desulfurization, the inventive method requires for one ton of molten steel, and the ferrosilicon amount (siliceous 75%) that is used for oxidizing reaction is no less than 2.8kg.And in order to guarantee that the molten steel energy supply lacks oxygen blast simultaneously, total aluminium add-on is no less than 2.3kg/ (t steel).
Specifically, for the smelting process of super-purity ferrite stainless steel molten steel, be 2.3kg/ (t steel) such as total aluminium add-on, when initial carbon was 0.25%, the ferrosilicon 2.72kg/ (t steel) that is used for oxidation can satisfy energy compensating, corresponding total oxygen consumption 6.56Nm 3/ (t steel); When initial carbon was 0.35%, vacuum processing time will prolong, and in the constant situation of aluminium amount, the ferrosilicon 3.45kg/ (t steel) that is used for oxidation can satisfy energy compensating, and total oxygen consumption is 8.39Nm 3/ (t steel); When initial carbon was 0.45%, total oxygen consumption was 10.16Nm 3/ (t steel); When initial carbon was 0.6%, total oxygen consumption was 12.81Nm 3/ (t steel).Can draw thus, when initial carbon exceeds 0.1 percentage point of 0.25% carbon content, then the oxygen consumption needs to improve 1.8Nm 3/ t.Certainly, if the aluminium add-on increases, the oxygen consumption can also reduce slightly.When the ordinary method initial carbon was 0.25%, for the molten steel of 110t, oxygen consumed at 800-900Nm 3Between, the inventive method only needs 720Nm 3Oxygen consumption.
Consider total blowing oxygen quantity (Nm when the inventive method proposition initial carbon is 0.25% 3) be controlled to be 6.3-6.8Nm 3/ t, initial carbon exceeds 0.25% carbon content 0.1%, and then total blowing oxygen quantity need increase 1.6-1.8Nm 3/ t.Simultaneously requirement uses the ferrosilicon add-on with oxidation to be higher than 2.8kg/t, and total aluminium add-on is higher than 2.3kg/t.
Reduce blowing oxygen quantity and can shorten oxygen blow duration, thereby reduce whole vacuum processing time, but the reduction dosage of simultaneously conserve oxygen consumption and saving reduction period consumes.
In addition, the present invention has increased the operation of top blast argon at the free carbon rejection process of ultravacuum, has greatly improved the decarburization denitrification rates, and the free carbonization treatment time also decreases.
The inventive method step 3) requires in the free carbon rejection process of ultravacuum, the compound Argon in the end, top, the rifle head of top rifle is apart from the molten steel identity distance from (rifle position) 1.4-1.6m during Argon, flow is at 200L/ (mint)~260L/ (mint), the BOTTOM ARGON BLOWING total flux is at 2L/ (mint)-6L/ (mint), treatment time 8-12min.Can preferably adopt when step 3) beginning to add aluminium rising molten steel temperature, to improve the decarburization denitrification rates.
For the free Decarburization Operation of VOD of routine, generally take BOTTOM ARGON BLOWING violent stirring operation under the high vacuum condition, according to the introduction of front to the routine operation method, the decarburization nitric efficiency of this method has been subject to the limited restriction of reaction area.Traditional view thinks that the mixing effect that bottom blowing is stirred greatly is better than top blast and stirs.Process is to the dynamic (dynamical) analysis of the free decarburization denitrification process of VOD, discovery is except vacuum and stirring intensity, decarburization denitrification reaction area is the central factor that affects its speed of reaction, if be a lot of small bubbles of quantity so the few air pocket of the subsurface quantity of molten steel can be broken, then decarburization denitrification reaction area will increase greatly.The top Argon has such function, result according to water model observation, top blast can be the decarburization denitrogenation enough micro-bubble sources is provided, the decarburization denitrogenation need not spontaneous nucleation, can directly react on these Argon Bubble surfaces, the top blast argon is to the vibrations of molten steel surface impacts simultaneously, and the subsurface air pocket of molten steel also can be broken, in addition, these argon gas that are blown into molten steel inside can further reduce CO dividing potential drop and the N of bubble inside 2Dividing potential drop is improved the thermodynamic condition of decarburization denitrification reaction.Can find out that although VOD top Argon is limited to the castering action of the stirring intensity of molten bath integral body, it can improve the speed of reaction of decarburization and denitrogenation greatly.
The inventive method is uncomplicated for production operation, top blow oxygen lance can be directly used in the Argon operation, for the argon gas stream that guarantees to jet enough surging forces are arranged simultaneously, its flow set is suitable with the oxygen blast flow, because argon gas standard state lower density is higher than oxygen, its flow set should be slightly less than the oxygen blast flow, and the rifle position when the rifle position is than oxygen blast simultaneously is lower slightly.
General VOD oxygen rifle is the supersonic speed rifle, is with three shower nozzles, about throat diameter 16mm, and Mach 2 ship 3, under above-mentioned imposing a condition, top blast argon flow is at 1300-1700Nm 3/ h, as calculated, during the 1.4-1.6m of rifle position, between 20cm-30cm, major part can enter molten steel inside to the top blast argon in the argon gas stream to the degree of depth of molten steel zap pit, form micro-bubble, the bubble that enters molten steel inside will laterally with the molten steel motion, be diffused into other zones of molten steel face below, because the intensively stirred effect of bottom blowing, these micro-bubbles quite a few be involved in depths, molten steel molten bath, will prolong their residence time in molten steel inside.Because top rifle Argon brought top, molten bath strong reaction, then the relatively traditional 6L/ (mint) of BOTTOM ARGON BLOWING flow-10L/ (mint) reduces slightly, is controlled at 2L/ (mint)-6 L/ (mint).
Because the relative ordinary method of the inventive method blowing oxygen quantity decreases, molten steel temperature when molten steel temperature may be lower than ordinary method and stops oxygen when stopping oxygen, in order to guarantee that free carbon rejection process molten steel temperature subsequently maintains high value, before free decarburization begins, can add the aluminium molten steel temperature that raises, the aluminium that adds mainly be with bath in Cr 2O 3Reaction, as calculated, the ton steel whenever adds 1kg aluminium, and to participate in the temperature that energy that this reaction discharges can make molten steel raise be 10 ℃.If molten steel its temperature when stopping oxygen has surpassed 1700 ℃, then can not add aluminium rising temperature, if its temperature is lower than 1700 ℃ when stopping oxygen, adds aluminium molten steel temperature is elevated to 1700 ℃, adding aluminium amount 0-2kg/t can meet the demands.
Need to prove that because the inventive method decarburization nitric efficiency is high, molten steel end point carbon, nitrogen content have also obtained effective control, its total content can be stablized and is controlled at below the 150ppm.
Beneficial effect of the present invention:
According to the inventive method, the end point carbon of VOD refining super-purity ferrite stainless steel, nitrogen total content can be stablized and be controlled at below the 150ppm, and the VOD vacuum processing time shortens 5-10min than ordinary method on this basis, and oxygen consumption and reductive agent consumption are necessarily reduced.
In a word, the inventive method has improved the ferritic stainless steel quality product, has shortened the treatment time, has reduced consumption.
